  Steven Wilson - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Steven Wilson (born Steven John Wilson on November 3, 1967 in Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire, England) is the lead guitarist/singer and songwriter for progressive rock band Porcupine Tree.
As a child, Steven was forced to learn the guitar and, needless to say, like most kids who are obliged to do something, he didn't enjoy it, so the lessons stopped taking place once his parents decided to quit wasting their money.
Steven's next step was forming the two most important bands in his life so far: No-Man and Porcupine Tree; to continue reading, please refer to the article of the latter, by clicking here.

Wilson told her that he believed that he was “under a microscope” on the production line, he was under great pressure, and he did not believe that he could continue to work under such conditions.
Wilson then told her that he believed that Danforth was making the referral “because of what happened at the Post Office.” Danforth believed that Wilson was referring to the shootings of certain Postal Service managers by a coworker.
Wilson asked to speak to his attorney before writing the statement, but Danforth refused this request, and said that if he left he would be terminated for insubordination.

 Welcome To Studio M Live- Original Music Content and Writing Since 1997- Webcasts, Music Photography
Studio M was very fortunate to speak with both Aviv Geffen and Steven Wilson about the origins and future of Blackfield, and how their working relationship produced one of 2004’s most impressive releases.
Steven Wilson: My main motivation was because Aviv became a very great friend and I wanted to bring his songwriting talent to the English speaking world, as until then only the Hebrew speaking world were aware of it.
Steven: Not really - Aviv's approach is very much about the 3 minute song, so any of my inclinations to introduce longer solo sections, or have the tracks extend beyond that were quickly squashed.

On this track, the closing vocal ("One of the wonders of the world is going down...") strikes me as a different track than on the original disc.
The opening bass is suddenly a sexy wall-shivering lash, where previously it was barely noticeable is beneath the chorus.
The sound of Wilson's tortured solo shrieking above the tinkles and tatters of Harrison's drums and Barbieri's postmodern arcade effects bring a new focus to what seemed to be a straightforward rock track.

Steve Wilson could have written this song during the lightbulb sun era, it has that subtle blend of harmonised vocals and lingering acoustic beauty that was the hall mark of Porcupine Tree of the time.
Giancarlo has a guitar style that is very reminiscent of Steven Wilson's (and David Gilmour too), while the vocals could be SW himself, if not for the lightest hint of an Italian accent to them.

Wilson continues searching for new ways to exhibit an old-school sense of what rock music should be and how it should be heard.
For too long, he argues, rock has suffered from lack of focus on the music, as well as turning its back on album structure, which can fuse a batch of songs into something greater than their own sum.

 Is Steven Wilson a musical genius?
I find it, for the most part, counter-intuitive, and for the past 10 years of the genre, bands have just been re-hashing what was already defined in the 80’s.
Most bands are content to keep rehashing their sound over and over without really expanding their horizons in order to keep the hits coming and yet Steven continues to explore soundscapes and genres and ideas and incorporate new things into his sound without fear of how it will be accepted.
I was rather amazed and proud of him and PT when I read a short article in the renowned German weekly news magazine "Der Spiegel" which said that Steven Wilson was one of the last musical geniuses alive.
